PoiiiicaI Temperance Parties.

1t would be the most remark able thing
in the history OF the world II the little
harmless Moxie Nerve Food plant should
substitute the use OF stimulants and take
the wind out of the sails OF the political
temperance parties. There is the best oil
authority for the statement that the
drinker is better satisfied with it, and the
liquor dealer has to keep it or lose his
custom. 1t is powerful factor that they
can make Just as much money on it, and
pay no license. Also, the women and
churches back it to the utmost. All the
dealers say it's sae is enormous. The
company putting it on the market offer the
chemists $4,000 if they can find anything
in it more deleterious than common bitter
root and wintergreen. We thank God it
can do 30 well without harm

A Highly Flattering Comparison.
Fror. the San Francisco Chronicle.


Children are very sympathetic.
There's one quite young who's got an
aunt whom she loves very dearly, but
the child does not understand every
thing. The aunt is single, but she
does not hope to be so long, although
judging from the child's remarks the
position OF wife is likely to be very
trying one. The gentleman who is
the object OF fiattering interest has
been in the habit of making long
and frequent calls. These calls the
child had studied with some regard to
the aunt she adores. The last one
the child assisted at ended abruptly.
"Auntie," she said sadly, (which
would you rather do, talk to Mr..
Jones or 60 to funeral?"

many poor children have in the swings.
and the thought had come to her that

Bernhardt At Rehearsal.

New YORK Letter TO Philadelphia Press.
Bernhardt was the craze here, and cert
a1nly she gave US finer acting than any
one else in our time. She has grown
stouter since her former visit, and it
would be utter nonsense for her to essay
the part of an umbrella and hide hers slf
in a cover nowadays. But there are few
parts she cannot play. I had proof of
this in way that shall alway consider
an extraordinary piece of personal good
fortune. The theater was dark though
the stage was lighted. It was when her
company was rehearsing "Adaienne Lee
couvreur." She came in from the street
in hat, jacket and gloves, and Topped
down on the dAsty boards like tailor
The actors and actresses came on, one
and two at time, and spoke their parts.
Not one exactly satisfied her and at each
fault she bounced to her feet, rushed to
the proper spot and took the place of the
player speaking the lines and impersoH-
ating the character as she conceived that
the situation required. ''ThereT she
would say in French, ''that's my idea" A
score Of times she repeated this, sitting
down between her effort plump on the
stage, With her legs crossed, and laughing
AID chattering like child. She did not
know she was observed from the darkened
auditorium, but I went away conscious
that had seen the greatest of actresses
play all the parts of great drama

house and outbuildings, with fences,
shrubbery, flower and vegetable gardens
and orchards to correspond, always tend
to materially enhance the value of farm.
Of course, there are other items of equal
or greater Importance in estimating the
value of a farm. The first is it's fertility
or productive capacity. The man who
increases the fertility of his acres,
thereby increasing their yield annually,
adds to their money value and advances
the real worth of his premises CORE
spondingly. This is matter to which
too little attention is given by many
farmers. They go on carelessly and neg
ligently, allowing the soil to degenerate
from year to year, when by adopting i'm
proved methods of culture and manage
ment, the result would be the increase of
fertility and productiveness. And may
we not attribute the expression farming
don't pay" to the fact that there are 90
many careless, negligent and indolent
farmers? Let US urge upon all engaged
in rural pursuits the advantage of max
ing every season such permanent i'm
provements as will tell in the future.
Just what Improvements shall be in
augurated, or how they shall be carried
cut, each person must determine for
himself, taking into consideration his
circumstances and the condition and
necessities of his farm. While one farm
needs better building or fences, or both,
another needs enrichment of the soil by
fertilizing, rotation of crops, &c. Every
farmer, whatever his specially whether
grain growing, dairying, grazing, fruit
culture or some other branch of hus-
bandry-knows what is his most urgent
need in the line of Improvements, and
should make efforts in that direction,
